Just curious.... Was this position/title created for him? Is he taking someone elses position? Does this mean that another coach is leaving or got demoted?
Thanks
No coach is leaving or getting demoted as a result of this move. Basically you get 3 assistants, a Director of Basketball Operations, and a Grad Assistant. We had Mullins, Valentine, and Gordon as the assistants, Mamon as the DOBO, and London as the Grad Assistant. Some coaches will make 1 assistant an Associate Head Coach which means they'll share some responsibilities of a Head Coach and are the top assistant. Moser had this role while at SLU.
I think Daniyal Robinson was the last Associate Head Coach under Moser, but it might've Bennie Seltzer, so basically Mullins gets a promotion for a job that was open, but doesn't have to be filled if that makes sense. So to answer your first question it was more or less created for him.
